Well, it is day three in Hawaii. We arrived Friday very early in the afternoon. That was quite interesting as we almost forgot Matt's garment bag with his dress uniforms on the bag carousel, then we realized that we had forgotten to get cash for a taxi. So Matt ran all over the airport looking for an ATM while I waited on the curb with all our bags, the only worldly possessions that we had until our household goods arrived in about a month or two. This was going to be interesting. We hopped into the taxi and had him take us to the Vehicle Processing Center to pick up the mustang, which we had shipped in advance, so it would be here waiting for us. That went very smoothly. While Matt was inspecting the car, I got a wonderful call from the Navy saying our household goods shipment had arrived and was ready for delivery. What? We weren't expecting all our things for quite some time. Only problem was that we didn't even know how to get to our hotel let alone have a permanent home. So, we had them put it in storage until we secured a place to live. Matt and I stayed at the Navy Lodge on historic Ford Island for the next 10 days at which point we moved into an old plantation style home in military housing at Pearl City. That same day we decided we had lived to long together without a puppy of our own and we welcomed Emma into our family. She has made life very exciting for us.
